If you turn on fast dictation, it will sometimes translate the language in which you dictate to English, which, in some cases, is not intended. Very often when I dictate something in another language than English, I want it to be transcribed in that language.
The developers know about this and are working for a solution. In general, I would say every bug or feature request that you share with them is acted on very diligently and with speed.

"you are not becoming the product" is a bold line to open with, and it made me curious rather than reassured. one review here specifically calls out a competitor for holding privacy certifications and not using dictation data for training, as a differentiator. now that Frontier Mini is free and unlimited, what's the actual model for staying sustainable on that tier, is voice data from free users used to improve future models, and if so is that opt-in or just disclosed in the terms somewhere. genuinely asking because unlimited free dictation has to be paid for by something
No, you are not becoming the product" is a smart line :)
voice dictation feels like one of those habits that is still weird for a few days, then suddenly typing everything starts to feel slow. I've been using voice more and more for rough ideas, messages, and prompts, and the biggest difference is whether the output feels clean enough to use immediately. making unlimited dictation free is a pretty strong move. if Frontier Mini is genuinely fast and accurate, I can see a lot of people trying voice for the first time without overthinking it.
curious how Willow handles different writing contexts. does it adapt formatting differently for Slack, emails, docs, and AI prompts, or is the cleanup mostly the same everywhere?
Are you mainly aiming at general text dictation, or does the product handle developer-y dictation too, like punctuation-heavy sentences, variable names, or speaking edits into a coding workflow?

I've always felt that typing is the bottleneck for a lot of knowledge work. If Frontier Pro can make dictation fast enough and accurate enough that people stop thinking about the tool entirely, that's a huge shift. Also love the decision to make it free for everyone. Excited to try it out. 🚀
